This is a nice magic suitable for parlour to large stage shows. It is easy to do, no angle to worry about and has an unexpected climax.
On the performer’s table is seen a bottle, a metal cylinder and a transparent glass. The cylinder is shown empty and then placed over the bottle. Now the fun begins. As the performer lifts up the cylinder, the bottle is seen to have turned upside down! It is covered again and when lifted up again, is has corrected itself. This is carried on a few more times and then a drink is poured from the bottle to the glass. The bottle continues with its acrobatic antics and finally the performer produces a large silk hanky from it.
